I have been making a corned beef in the crock pot. It's new, the crock pot. Well, actually this whole "cooking" thing is new to me. So I was told to leave it on low all night. So I have the delicious smell of corned beef, carrots, potatoes, onions, and cabbage wafting through my apartment. And the cat is going absolutely crazy. She's on the counter (bad!), she's laying on the kitchen floor, she's running full speed through the house. It's amazing. It's making my gums itch, the smell. I just want to pick up the giant slab of meat and take a big bite out of it like one would an apple.
